kerumunan


Definition from KBBI (Kamus Besar Bahasa Indones) Daring:
Kerumunan adalah kumpulan orang dan sebagainya yg tidak teratur dan bersifat sementara.

Example sentence(s):
  • Wali Kota San Francisco Gavin Newsom mengatakan langkah itu diambil setelah melihat volume kerumunan yang dianggap terlalu besar di luar AT&T Park, tempat upacara pembukaan kirab. - Kompas.com  

Explanation:
Flash mob merupakan frasa nominal dalam bahasa sumbernya. Namun ketika diterjemahkan ke dalam bahasa sasaran, bergeser menjadi kata benda.

Jika diterjemahkan satu per satu,
mob: gerombolan, flash: sementara.
flash mob: gerombolan sementara.

Ternyata gerombolan sementara dapat diwakilkan oleh satu padanan kata, yaitu kerumunan. Saya memilih kerumunan karena definisi menurut KBBI sepadan dengan konteks flash mob.
